Dealing with any form of cancer is never an easy time for anyone and it is no different for oral cancer in London. That shock of getting the news is almost enough to kill you anyway, let alone pick yourself up and find the strength to ask the disease out for a fight, but it is the only way to have any chance of beating it and there are a lot of good people who will be on your side throughout; nurses, friends and family are the people you need to have around you during this torrid time. The causes of this disease are never truly black and white: is it lifestyle through smoking, drinking and diet- stress even…who truly knows? Though it would be fair to say these factors won’t help, but if you fit into this unruly world, you need to be aware of certain symptoms, namely any irritation in the mouth that doesn’t seem to go away; sore throats, ulcer, coughing and constant jaw ache, to name a few. Once you have been diagnosed, then the type of treatment depends on how advanced the problem is, the moral here is catch it and do something about it early on and you’ll have a greater chance of beating it. Then afterwards, what then? Well why you are recovering successfully, you may like to take a good hard look at what you were doing to get you into this state in the first place and then completely change everything for the better.
